The Pascal syntax makes it doubly difficult to fix this issue. Not only
are "case labels" (without the "case") indistinguishable from "goto
labels", but also "@<Global variables@>", which are not indented in WEB
programs. It would require manual intervention to push these items in a
notch (and there are lots of them in "TeX and friends").

C syntax could make this easier, but I chose to add "@t\1\5\5@>" in the
half-dozen sections in CWEB instead. I'm not sure what Don will say
about the _single_ "case-less case" in The Stanford GraphBase that I
reported last week.
Thanks for investigating!
